My mind is a terrible thing to waste

I think I may have heard that statement a million times in my teenage years, but they were right.  In my recent Facebook post I talked about the power of meditation.  Now before you roll your eyes or tune me out make sure you google famous people that use meditation.  I'll wait.........................and there you go.  If you have a lame excuse why you can't spend 10 minutes a day on meditation I think you should hang on to that excuse with all that you got.  There are probably bigger problems to tackle then, stress reduction, physical and mental health, more energy, being kinder, letting little things go, loving your family more and so on.  In fact I would guess that what ever you are facing keeps you successfully stuck in a painful yet comfortable situation and meditation would only move you beyond that comfortableness.  Just food for thought.  I will now remove my tongue from my cheek and get off my soap box so I can meditate.
